Milton and Margie's Soy Wax Candles
Jess Snively is the owner of this fabulous Etsy Shop. Jess takes used cans and jars and upcycles them into awesome candles.
All of Jess' candles are made with Soy wax which is "non-toxic and burns clean, with no petrol-carbon soot which can blacken walls, ceilings, and furniture. Soybeans are a renewable source, so buying soy wax candles is better for the environment! Soy candles also burn longer and have a greater scent-throw."
Jess was so sweet to send me her Carmel Apple Cider Candle in an upcycled can. I love this scent. It is just absolutely perfect for a crisp fall evening, and the can is simply adorable!

Jess has recently added some new items to her Etsy store.
Check out this sweet little guy! "In his natural habitat, this needle-felted fawn wants a loving home! He is hand-needle felted from wool roving with a tiny red ribbon around his neck."
From head to toe, this needle-felted fawn is 4" tall and is 3.5" long.
Do you know someone having a new baby or a little girl who loves little stuffed creatures? This little guy would make a perfect gift.

What would you do with an old pair of jeans that no longer fit? Donate it to the local Goodwill? Sell it in a garage sale? Throw it away? Not Jess, she turned them into a fabulous purse!
"The front pocket of the jeans functions as a front pocket for the purse, and the back pocket of the jeans functions as a back pocket for the purse. The lining is made from red and white vintage, thrift-store fabric. The strap is double-sided: one side is black and one side is white with red polka dots.
There are three buttons sewn above the pocket: a red and white cat, a red and white taffy, and a regular black button.
The purse is 11" wide and 7.5" tall. The strap is 35" long.
This purse is a one of a kind. What better fashion statement can you get?
BUY IT:
All of Jess' beautiful creations are available at Milton and Margie's.
Carmel Apple Cider Soy Wax Candle = $10
